Tonight was one of our biggest turn-out mission this month where 13 Goodgymers helped KVA’s (Kingston Voluntary Action) Surplus Hub with their task list. Immediately, the team busied themselves by splitting into two groups. The first group moved all the crates from the van to inside the hub, unpacked them, sorted out donations and put them into the appropriate crates so that these can be packed away in the storeroom.

The second group swept, mopped, cleaned and tidied up the two kitchen areas to make it more accessible for KVA’s volunteer team and clean from any future pests.

Welcome Laura, on your first task!

Five Goodgymers were ready on hand to help Refugee Action Kingston. Rachel, Laurel and Amy helped minimise and sorted out piles of donated clothes for children and teens. While this was happening, Anna and Emily waddled like penguins to shift and swap two fridges around, from one of the kitchen to another in the office. Emily was brave enough to get into tight spaces behind one of the fridges!

The New Malden Town Centre Partnership (NMTCP) hosted a special evening to thank all their volunteers and supporters. GoodGym got a mention with a special thanks to Emily for her tireless support. Dani got all emotional when she presented Emily with a basket of treats - and so did we! Well done, Emily, for your effort and support for Jubilee Square.
